Corey Sulenes, founder.
Over 25 years in technology and cybersecurity, with CISO-level leadership and a 10-year Navy technical background. Prior work includes Senior Policy expert for the US Government on Next Generation 9-1-1 technology and public safety systems, and Director at a Fortune 50 telecom responsible for Cyber and National Security. RuneSight exists because the advisory market is built for enterprises, and most of the organizations that need serious security guidance are not enterprises.
Why RuneSight.
Before founding RuneSight: Senior Policy expert for the US Government on Next Generation 9-1-1 and public safety technology, and Director at a Fortune 50 telecom leading Cyber and National Security. The security advisory market has a gap. Large enterprise firms do not scale down. What they deliver is overbuilt for a thirty-person startup or a small county sheriff's department that just needs CJIS compliance before onboarding a new records management system.
At the same time, junior consultants and generalist IT firms do not have the depth to handle real security decisions: the kind that show up in a board meeting, a federal contract requirement, or a VC diligence process. The gap between "too much" and "not enough" is exactly where most of the actual work needs to happen.
RuneSight fills that gap. Senior judgment, practical delivery, priced and scoped for the organizations that actually need it.
